A correspondent of the San Francisco
Chronicle. writing from Helena, Montana,
says: One does not find the bank Presi-
dents and the rich men to be g~ray-haired
and long past middle age, as be does in so
many OF the Eastern cities. On the con
trary, the people most active and holding
the most responsible positions are not out
Of their forties and some OF them are not
yet 30. Here is n who is worth half a
million, made in a legitimate manner too,
and who is the manager of half q dozen
mining companies. He was born in 1855.
There again is 9 cattleman rated at a
million dollars. He is less than 40 years
of age. 1t is the same in many other in
stances. The people are growing up with
the country, taking advantage OF its pro-
gress aud turning every opportunity TO
account.

Great Iron Works.

II is generally assured by Americans,
even by those engaged in the iron industry,
that Krupp of Essen pays out more money
TO his employees than any iron firm in
the United States, yet this 10 an error.
Krupp employs $1,000 men. and Carnegie's
various Pittsburg mills are operated by
5000 men. The difference 10 the aggre-
gate OF salaries is the difference between
American and European pay. The
monthly payroll Of the Pittsburg iron
master is over half q million dollars,
which is considered more than that OF
Krupp.

(Hartford Times) CONNECTICUT'S PORTRAIT OF WASHING
 T0N


 A good deal of inquiry is constantly ariring, ill and out of the capitI l, about the stately full length portrait If Washing ton in the senate chamber, over on Capitol Hill. As the picture is masterpiece, and has history as well as priceless histori- cal value, we will here state the facts about it, which it is hoped will be remem- bered and save q great deal of questioning in the future.
 The picture was painted, not as many seem to suppose, by Trumbull, but by Gilbert Stuart. He, though native of Rhode Island, had long been a resident of London. where by series of masterly portraits, he had won an abiding fame as a painter. He was by nature gifted with an admirable talent for reproducing the fea- lures of persons possessing unusual force of character, practical superiority, and ex- ecutive capacity. Stuart only made three original portraits of Washington. One of these he destroyed another was made for Lord Lansdowne and the third is now i'll the custody of the Boston Art Museum. The two surviving portraits are doubtless the most perfect existing representations of Washington. as he looked at the time | when they were painted-which was about four years before his death. They are Stuart's masterpieces, and have given to the world the I, cognized face of Washing ton. .,.. Stuart made twenty-six copies from these originals, which are likewise called originals. The one in our senate chamber is doubtless transcript from the Lans- downe painting It is noble picture-a full length figure, with one arm resting on his sword -hilt and the other extended.
 | It was purchased of Stuart under the following circumstances Washington died December IA, l799 In the following year the general assembly of Connecticut appointed United States Senator Hill house, Deputy Governor Goodrich, and another gentleman, a committee to pur' chase a portrait of Washington. They chose out of MT. Stuarts collection the painting we have. That artist himself es pecially recommeI d d it as the best ont outside of the two originals. It was paint ed for South Carolina but that state pre- ferred one of Trumbull's, that had ful military costume-which Stuart, with { better discernment of Washington's true character, never would paint. The prict paid for it was $500. e.a .-
 An item has been going the rounds O the papers to the effect that the custodian of the National Gallery of London, speak ing of famous portraits. said that ther were but few portraits of Washington 0 especial value; that all of Stuart's were o great value, but that decidedly the bes one of Stuart's outside of the two origi nals, wat the property of the state of Con necticut, and that it hung in the senat chamber at Hartford. It was readil worth Che added) $50,000, to place in an first class continental gallery. -. l Whether this story be apochryphal 0 not-and it bears the evidence of bein true-the picture could not be bought ( Connecticut for twice that sum, nor, prot ably, for any sum. It grows more valuf ble with increasing years, and it should, 8 it will, be guarded well by the state.
